Ladies,

Please keep our family in your prayers over the next few weeks. God has blessed us with so much right now and I feel like we are setting out on a new adventure. We are very (VERY!) diligently working on finding that perfect house, (this has been such a roller coaster!) a new sweet baby is due to arrive in around 10 weeks, and my older children begin their first year in a wonderful homeschool enrichment program that requires an hour commute each way and a huge change in our homeschooling.

While all of these things are certainly blessings and I am thrilled with it all - I can certainly see the potential for becoming overwhelmed. It is amazing to me at how different life is with so many different ages of children in our family. I am a homebody, I am not very good a meeting new people, and I feel like just as I'm learning how to mother little ones well, they grow into teens...

I am keeping all homeschooling families in prayer right now. Please pray for me also!

The house will happen in God's time. All the best things are also the most challenging! Praying for your family!

Praying, Lisa. Your new adventure sounds amazing, but *good stress* can be just as much challenge as *bad stress*.

Peace,
Nancy
